Hi everyone! This is my second post for today, so don't miss the earlier post! Tonight there is a special Gina K Blog Hop featuring one of the new stamp sets called "Happy Spring"! This set is just delightful--the images are gorgeous and really fun to play with. I already have a second card planned out with this set! And when you buy this set you get the Card Club Kit with it for free--includes instructions and cardstock!!
I've been in a purple kind of mood these past few days and I can't wait for the spring crocus' to pop up and start blooming! I made this card with my mom in mind--think it might be her Easter card this year! I colored with copics and added some stickles to the image for some bling. The papers are all distressed a bit and then I created those corner pieces with my border punch. I love me my Prima flowers, so I layered some and added them around the bottom of the image. Some ribbon, pearls and a tag finish it off--plum purdy!!
For even more projects with Happy Spring, please check out these GinaK Designer's blogs:
Enjoy the spring weather this weekend--I know I sure will!

Suzanne,
ReplyDeleteThis is gorgeous! I love the purples! I love the way you did your corners, I never thought of using my border punch to create corners. Stunning!
Love your purple card.....absolutely gorgeous!!! All the details are stunning....
ReplyDeleteI got some of the Viva Decor pearl products from Susanna's (I think that's the correct name), so I'm excited to make my own pearls on my cards. Tried it the other day with the brown ones, and they were so easy and turned out perfectly round. Next time I'll do big and little like these!!!
You make all your cards look so fantastic!!!
This is beautiful! I've left an award for you on my blog. Please stop by and pick it up when you can. http://crazycrafter57.blogspot.com/

Beautiful card, Suzanne, those flowers are gorgeous. I love purple too. Looks like you used Sheila's idea for the corners, it certainly makes a lovely embellishment.
ReplyDeleteHello. And Bye.
ReplyDeleteLovely purple card. The flowers are so pretty - you must have a green thumb to get the flowers from the seeds already. lol
ReplyDeleteStunningly purple! Luv it. Great card.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous! I hope you had a lovely time at your picnic!
